Khaled Ibrahimi

Joint-CEO

With a background in directing and an education in computer science, business and management, Khaled transitioned into the games industry after graduation. With 7 years experience in film and games, Khaled has acted as producer on the PlayStation 3 exclusive, Killzone 3, worked as innovation officer at Cannibal Games Studios, and is a partner and executive producer at independent developer Interceptor Entertainment.

Khaled understands what it’s like to be an invisible upstart, to be voiceless in a monopoly-driven marketplace. But times are changing. Indie developers are setting a new bar by which the industry is measured. Khaled wants to apply his degrees in computer science, business and management to support struggling indie developers.
